Kristoff was placed under a 72-hour hold for a psychiatric evaluation just days before his death.
The Young and the Restless actor Kristoff St. John died from heart disease, and alcohol was a contributing factor, the Los Angeles County coroner’s office revealed on Tuesday. The coroner’s report listed the star’s official cause of death as “hypertrophic heart disease” — a condition that thickens the heart muscle and can make it harder for the heart to pump blood, according to the Mayo Clinic, reports TMZ.com.
Meanwhile, USWeekly.com has reported that Kristoff was placed under a 72-hour hold for a psychiatric evaluation just days before his death. The actor was released on February 1, just two days before he was found dead at his home in Los Angeles’ Woodland Hills neighbourhood.
